Skyway TA lined up next to a Robinson Amtrac.  :4_17_5:

I was interested to see the difference, thought I would share it with you all.

I think the Amtrac's have a 21" TT if my memory serves me right. I know the Pro XL's have a 20.5" TT.

They certainly make cracking race bikes that's for sure, very stable and they corner like they're on rails.

Top choice of frame Lee, top choice indeed. :daumenhoch:

Thats OberonSpaceFruit's Old F+F.

Are ya gonna get some Robbo forks for it?

And get it to spec?

I'll post some pics of my Team Model tonight if I get a chance!!

What year is it?

Its going to be built up with the parts off this one, with a few small changes, and built as a race bike. So i'll probably keep the L/G forks on tbh.

And yes, the TT measures a whisker over 21".  :daumenhoch:
